After the preliminary consultation, the applicant must file a concept plan with the Planning Director for the purpose of obtaining information and guidance from the Planning Commission before the applicant enters into binding commitments or incurs substantial expense. At minimum, the concept plan must consist of the following:a site plan that is drawn to an appropriate scale and, in general form, shows:proposed land uses and structures; natural features of the development site; approximate location of all roadways and access drives proposed within the planned unit development; and location of all adjacent public streets, thoroughfares, and public utilities; a site location map that is drawn to an appropriate scale and shows:the proposed planned unit development in relation to surrounding streets and property within 600 feet in all directions of the development site; and the location, height, and land use of all existing buildings and structures adjoining the development site; schematic drawings that show the size, gross square footage, character, and disposition of buildings currently existing on the site and buildings proposed for the site; and a written statement that contains:a general explanation of the planned unit development; a statement of the present ownership of all the land within the development; a schedule setting forth any proposed exceptions to district requirements, including exceptions to the regulations governing use, bulk, yard, off-street parking, and signs, as they apply to the zoning district or districts in which the planned unit development is to be located; and proposed public benefits and amenities. The Planning Commission must review the concept plan and provide the information and guidance that it considers appropriate. Opinions or advice provided by the Planning Commission are in no way binding on the Planning Commission or the City Council when later taking formal action on the planned unit development. The review of the concept plan is a public meeting. Public comment on the concept plan will be accepted at that meeting. Notice of the meeting must be given as specified by the Director of Planning in accordance with:the rules and regulations that, subject to Title 4 {“Administrative Procedure Act – Regulations”} of the <cite data-path="|general">City General Provisions Article</cite>, the Planning Commission adopts; and the State Open Meetings Act (Title 3 of the State <cite data-path="|general">General Provisions Article</cite>).
